Mr. C. J. Hazard
 
Dear Sir,
   Owing to the Miss trains having yankee prisoners to transport I have been unable to get any cars in with corn yet. Expect to be able to send you 4 cars by Mondays train. I have engaged Mrs Stovrs corn in Shuck at $2.50 per Bu will send it up as soon as I get cars.
   at Mr Halls suggestion I purchased 132 Sks corn of A C Davidson at $3.00 per Bu fght on Miss road 25c on Tenn Road 50c Forage 1.00 on every 10 sks. It is here awaiting shipment. Send back the sacks to A. C. Davidson as soon as you can. The corn is for the employees of the Company. I am going out to Bellevue today will pay for the corn and send you copy of the bill and charges &c. Will fill the sacks sent down to Mr. Hall today. 
Yours truly &c
J. M. Zillman
